The Welcoming Home | Coats & Clark Home Fancies in Crochet Heritage Edition PDF
Vintage Home Crochet — The Welcoming Home
Heirloom Table Linens — Edition 02
Vintage home crochet moves far beyond the tabletop in Home Fancies in Crochet. This restored Coats & Clark book follows handmade lace through the rooms of the home—across tables and dressers, onto chair backs, into windows and bedrooms, and even underfoot. The designs show how crochet once helped create continuity from one room to the next.
At the center of the book is one pineapple construction adapted into five furnishings: a tablecloth, banquet cloth, runner, single bedspread and double bedspread. One motif becomes part of the visual language of the whole home.

Modern Maker’s Notes
The editorial pages discuss Size 20 and Size 30 crochet cotton, bedspread cotton, Pearl Cotton, embroidery floss, rug yarn, blocked gauge, filet proportions and adapting vintage furnishings to modern furniture. The Craft Yarn Council crochet thread and steel hook guide is a useful current reference when comparing historic materials with modern equivalents.
Hospitality Then and Now
Vintage home crochet does not require recreating an entire period interior. One runner across an entry table, a lace panel at a window or a pineapple cloth brought out when family gathers can carry the same handmade intention.
